Whilst the conclusion may very well be true, your argument is unsound.
Please substitute a real premis for the vague 'based on what I assume you
mean'.

Please go and re-read my original response to Alex Filonov who claimed that
Oracle consistency is somehow more correct than that of DB2/MSSQL. We've
discussed DB2/MSSQL vs. Oracle consistency issues, not mysql concurrency
control.

As to mysql, the answer to your question is truly simple: MYSQL has (and
has had for quite a while) an implementation of Oracle style 'read
consistency' with rollback segments and all.
